The remote key for the vehicle in question has, like many other cars, a mechanical key for starting and emergency door opening (in case the battery runs flat, preventing the central locking from functioning) and buttons for locking and unlocking. Additionally, it features a nice accessory: the lighting around the speaker edges; using a knob located to the left of the steering wheel, you can activate this function as well as choose from various effects and adjustments that give the interior a youthful appearance with a touch of tuning.
